We propose a new experiment to measure the running of the fine-structure constant in the space-like region by scattering high-energy muons on atomic electrons of a low-Z target through the process $\mu e \to \mu e$. The differential cross…
We construct a physically motivated model for the isospin-one non-strange vacuum polarization function Pi(Q^2) based on a spectral function given by vector-channel OPAL data from hadronic tau decays for energies below the tau mass and a…
We have measured the cross section $\sigma(e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-\gamma)$ with the KLOE detector at DA$\Phi$NE, at an energy $W=M_\phi=1.02$ GeV. From the dependence of the cross section on $m(\pi^+\pi^-)=\sqrt{W^2-2WE_\gamma}$, where…
We employ a mathematical framework based on rational approximants in order to calculate the pseudoscalar-pole piece of the hadronic light-by-light contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $a_{\mu}^{\textrm{HLbL};P}$. The…
High-statistics data on the $e^+e^-\to \pi^+\pi^-$ cross section and the pion vector form factor have been obtained recently by several collaborations. Unfortunately, there are some tensions between different datasets, especially the most…
I give an overview of the different contributions to the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments in the Standard Model. Special emphasis is given to recent QED results as well as to the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution…
We review recent progress on the numerical determination of the Hadronic Light-by-Light contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. We advocate for a slight increase of the White Paper number for its Standard Model…
We discuss the hadronic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. They are dominated by light quark contributions which are constrained by the mechanism of chiral symmetry breaking. Using the leading order result based on $e^+…

We study the processes e+ e- --> 3(pi+pi-)gamma, 2(pi+pi-pi0)gamma and K+ K- 2(pi+pi-)gamma, with the photon radiated from the initial state. About 20,000, 33,000 and 4,000 fully reconstructed events, respectively, have been selected from…
We investigate two points related to existing treatments of isospin-breaking corrections to the CVC relation between the e^+e^- --> pi^+ pi^- cross-section and dGamma[tau^- --> nu_tau pi^- pi^0]/ds. Implications for the value of the…
We perform an updated analysis of $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-$ cross-section data using a dispersive representation of the pion vector form factor. We show that the available data are compatible with the assumption that the form factor is free of…
We study the anomalous electromagnetic pion form factor $F_{\pi^0\gamma^*\gamma^*}$ with a set of holographic models. By comparing with the measured value of the linear slope, some of these models can be ruled out. From the remaining models…
We present a detailed analysis of $e^+e^-\to\pi^+\pi^-$ data up to $\sqrt{s}=1\,\text{GeV}$ in the framework of dispersion relations. Starting from a family of $\pi\pi$ $P$-wave phase shifts, as derived from a previous Roy-equation analysis…
We present details on a new measurement of the muon magnetic anomaly, $a_\mu = (g_\mu -2)/2$. The result is based on positive muon data taken at Fermilab's Muon Campus during the 2019 and 2020 accelerator runs. The measurement uses $3.1$…
The dominant theoretical uncertainties in both, the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the value of the electromagnetic coupling at the Z scale arise from their hadronic contributions. Since these will ultimately dominate the…
There are indications that hadronic loops in some electroweak observables are almost saturated by parton level effects. Taking this as the hypothesis for this work, we propose a genuine parton level estimate of the hadronic light-by-light…
The current 3$\sigma$ discrepancy between experiment and Standard Model predictions for $\pi^0 \to e^+e^-$ is reconsidered using the Pad\'e Theory for bivariate functions, the Canterbury approximants. This method provides a…
The Fermilab Muon $g-2$ experiment measures the muon anomalous magnetic moment with high precision. Together with recent improvements on the theory front, the first results of the experiment confirm the long-standing discrepancy between the…
We calculate the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon in the minimal Randall-Sundrum model with standard model fields in five-dimensional (5D) warped space and a brane-localized Higgs. We use a fully 5D framework to compute the one-loop…
